From Andrew

Here is some disheartening information from Andrew. Note that I have received the new Boges hot off the line and directly from Boge. I’ll be getting to them shortly.

Phil, thought I’d give you an update on my Boge experience with the ones I
thought had no issues. Haven’t seen any updates to Bogegate in a while, so I
guess you still haven’t gotten your order directly from Boge to try out.

To recap I bought 4 boxes about 3 or 4 days after you first announced
Bogegate. They had the new typed descriptions on the boxes and the candy
packs, but they had the long and short condom and the first box was great,
so I emailed you to tell you that I thought the problems were resolved. No
issues, and all 5 fired. Then, the second box started having problems. 1 was
crushed at the 510 connection making it impossible to screw onto the battery
and too bent for pliers (the box was in perfect shape so I don’t think that
it was damaged in transit). Out of this 2nd box I’d say 3 of 5 were pretty
good but the other 2 did not last as long and the draw got very tight.

On to the third box things got much, much worse. 3 of the 5 burnt almost
immediately. I was vaping at like 3.7-4.0 volts but still. Today one burnt
up, and it was like nothing I’ve ever experienced. It was literally on fire
thank God I didn’t inhale. It was tasting a little burnt, but I was at work
and needed a vape so I was gently taking one and then all of the sudden I
pushed the battery and smoke started pouring out and the smell was terrible.
I was at work, and it was very embarrassing. I can tell coworkers are now
worried that I’m going to start a fire up there, and I just know they are
going to tell me I can’t vape anymore at work. Bummer. I use the cap fill
method and leave my cartos to sit overnight and make sure they are
completely saturated before I ever put them on a battery, so I don’t think
this was a filling error. I still have one box left, but needless to say I’m
really disappointed and don’t really even want to use them. Thought since
this batch was the long/short condom that the problems were fixed, but not
in my experience. I’ll be really interested to hear your review once your
get yours from Boge. I hope you don’t experience what I did with the one
that caught on fire it was really scary and frankly freaked me out. Hope you
are doing well, and I look forward to your next video.

Sincerely,
Andrew
